Ginsenoside Rg3 Restores Mitochondrial Cardiolipin Homeostasis via GRB2 to Prevent Parkinson's Disease. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024:e2403058.

Abstract
Regulating cardiolipin to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis is a promising strategy for addressing Parkinson's disease (PD). Through a comprehensive screening and validation process involving multiple models, ginsenoside Rg3 (Rg3) as a compound capable of enhancing cardiolipin levels is identified. This augmentation in cardiolipin levels fosters mitochondrial homeostasis by bolstering mitochondrial unfolded protein response, promoting mitophagy, and enhancing mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Consequently, this cascade enhances the survival of tyrosine hydroxylase positive (TH+) dopaminergic neurons, leading to an amelioration in motor performance within PD mouse models. Using limited proteolysis-small-molecule mapping combined with molecular docking analysis, it has confirmed Growth Factor Receptor-Bound Protein 2 (GRB2) as a molecular target for Rg3. Furthermore, these investigations reveal that Rg3 facilitates the interaction between GRB2 and TRKA (Neurotrophic Tyrosine Kinase, Receptor, Type 1), thus promotes EVI1 (Ecotropic Virus Integration Site 1 Protein Homolog) phosphorylation by ERK, subsequently increases CRLS1 (Cardiolipin Synthase 1) gene expression and boosts cardiolipin synthesis. The absence of GRB2 or CRLS1 significantly attenuates the beneficial effects of Rg3 on PD symptoms. Finally, Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) that also promotes the binding between GRB2 and TRKA is further identified. The identified compounds, Rg3 and TDF, exhibit promising potential for the prevention of PD by bolstering cardiolipin expression and reinstating mitochondrial homeostasis.

Front Mol Neurosci 2023; 16:1214150. [PMID: 37609072 PMCID: PMC10442162 DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2023.1214150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims Huntingtin-associated protein 1 (HAP1) is a neuronal protein closely associated with microtubules and might facilitate neurological function rehabilitation. This study aimed to investigate the effects of HAP1 on SCI and the underlying mechanisms. Methods the spinal cord injury (SCI) mouse model was induced by Allen's method. Then recombinant-HAP1 (r-HAP1) was administrated by intrathecal injection, and the BMS, Thermal nociceptive thresholds, tactile nociceptive thresholds, and neurofibrillary regeneration were identified to inspect the therapy outcome. Then NSCs were isolated from mice on embryonic day 14.5 and induced to differentiate into neurons. The efficiency of axon growth was calculated. Signaling pathway array was conducted to examine the signaling pathways in NSCs treated with r-HAP1. Antagonists and activators of TrkA were used to confirm the role of TrkA of HAP1 intervention both in vitro and in vivo. Results r-HAP1 ameliorates the neurological function rehabilitation after SCI, and benefits the regain of Tuj in injury spinal cord. Also significantly enhances neurite growth during neuronal differentiation of NSCs; Signaling pathway array and Western blot revealed that r-HAP1 significantly activates the phosphorylation of TrkA-MAPK/ERK in NSCs. TrkA selective inhibitor GW441756 blocks r-HAP1 on TrkA-MAPK/ERK signaling pathway and detracts from axonal growth after neuronal differentiation. TrkA selective activator gambogic amide can mimic the function of r-HAP1 by activating the foregoing pathway. ERK activator U-46619 reverses the blocking effect of GW441756 on r-HAP1. Conclusion HAP1 activates the TrkA-MAPK signaling pathway and is conducive to neurite elongation during NSC neuronal differentiation; by which to improve the prognosis of spinal cord injury in mice.

Abstract
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is known to regulate both cancer cell survival and death signaling, depending on the cellular circumstances, in various cell types. In this study, we showed that NGF strongly upregulated the protein level of tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA) in TrkA-inducible SK-N-MC cancer cells, resulting in increases in various TrkA-dependent cellular processes, including the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and caspase-8 cleavage. In addition, NGF enhanced TrkA-induced morphological changes and cell death, and this effect was significantly suppressed by the JNK inhibitor SP600125, but not by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor wortmannin. To investigate novel targets associated with the enhancement of TrkA-induced SK-N-MC cell death caused by NGF, we performed Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining and two-dimensional (2D) proteomic analysis in TrkA-inducible SK-N-MC cells. We identified 31 protein spots that were either greatly upregulated or downregulated by TrkA during NGF treatment using matrix-associated laser desorption/ionization time of flight/time of flight mass spectrometry, and we analyzed the effects of SP600125 and wortmannin on the spots. Interestingly, 11 protein spots, including heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNP K), lamin B1 and TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP43), were significantly influenced by SP600125, but not by wortmannin. Moreover, the NGF/TrkA-dependent inhibition of cell viability was significantly enhanced by knockdown of hnRNP K using small interfering RNA, demonstrating that hnRNP K is a novel target associated with the regulation of TrkA-dependent SK-N-MC cancer cell death enhanced by NGF.

Abstract
SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells respond to nerve growth factor (NGF)-mediated activation of the tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA) with neurite outgrowth, thereby providing a model to study neuronal differentiation. We performed a time-resolved analysis of NGF-TrkA signaling in neuroblastoma cells using mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics. The combination of interactome, phosphoproteome, and proteome data provided temporal insights into the molecular events downstream of NGF binding to TrkA. We showed that upon NGF stimulation, TrkA recruits the E3 ubiquitin ligase Cbl-b, which then becomes phosphorylated and ubiquitylated and decreases in abundance. We also found that recruitment of Cbl-b promotes TrkA ubiquitylation and degradation. Furthermore, the amount of phosphorylation of the kinase ERK and neurite outgrowth increased upon Cbl-b depletion in several neuroblastoma cell lines. Our findings suggest that Cbl-b limits NGF-TrkA signaling to control the length of neurites.

Abstract
The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is well known to play an important role in cell death signaling of the p75 neurotrophin receptor. However, little has been studied about a role of JNK in the signaling pathways of the tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA) neurotrophin receptor. In this study, we investigated JNK inhibitor SP600125-controlled TrkA-dependent targets by proteomic analysis to better understand an involvement of JNK in TrkA-mediated signaling pathways. PDQuest image analysis and protein identification results showed that hnRNP C1/C2, α-tubulin, β-tubulin homolog, actin homolog, and eIF-5A-1 protein spots were upregulated by ectopic expression of TrkA, whereas α-enolase, peroxiredoxin-6, PROS-27, HSP70, PP1-gamma, and PDH E1-alpha were downregulated by TrkA, and these TrkA-dependent upregulation and downregulation were significantly suppressed by SP600125. Notably, TrkA largely affected certain PTM(s) but not total protein amounts of the SP600125-controlled TrkA-dependent targets. Moreover, SP600125 strongly suppressed TrkA-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation signaling pathways as well as JNK signaling, indicating that SP600125 could function as a TrkA inhibitor. Taken together, our results suggest that TrkA could play an important role in the cytoskeleton, cell death, cellular processing, and glucose metabolism through activation or inactivation of the SP600125-controlled TrkA-dependent targets.

Abstract
PURPOSE Endometriosis-associated pelvic pain appears due to persistent nociceptive stimulation, but the precise mechanisms remain poorly understood. METHODS A search was conducted to screen and select articles from PubMed. MAIN RESULTS Neurotrophins (NTs), a family of neuronal growth factors, are overexpressed in endometriosis and encompass NGF, BDNF and NT-3 and NT-4/5. NT receptors, TrkA and p75NTR, and NT receptor-interacting proteins, MAGE and NDN, were also expressed. NTs and their receptors play a role in the development and maintenance of neural tissues in non-neuronal cell types such as endometriosis. Nerve fibers contain unmyelinated sensory C, myelinated sensory Adelta and adrenergic nerve fibers that innervate abnormal cell growths. An increased release of proinflammatory cytokines from endometriotic lesions is responsible for the excessive sensory innervation and development of chronic pelvic pain. CONCLUSIONS The preponderance of the inflammatory milieu and subsequent hyperinnervation might be involved in the pathophysiology of pain generation in women with endometriosis.

TrkAIII promotes microtubule nucleation and assembly at the centrosome in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, contributing to an undifferentiated anaplastic phenotype. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2013; 2013:740187.

Abstract
The alternative TrkAIII splice variant is expressed by advanced stage human neuroblastomas (NBs) and exhibits oncogenic activity in NB models. In the present study, employing stable transfected cell lines and assays of indirect immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, Western blotting, microtubule regrowth, tubulin kinase, and tubulin polymerisation, we report that TrkAIII binds α -tubulin and promotes MT nucleation and assembly at the centrosome. This effect depends upon spontaneous TrkAIII activity, TrkAIII localisation to the centrosome and pericentrosomal area, and the capacity of TrkAIII to bind, phosphorylate, and polymerise tubulin. We propose that this novel role for TrkAIII contributes to MT involvement in the promotion and maintenance of an undifferentiated anaplastic NB cell morphology by restricting and augmenting MT nucleation and assembly at the centrosomal MTOC.
